Randy, it actually steers very well. Wouldn't hurt to get some more muscle though!

Glad you got the ole girl back Allen. Did ya keep the power steering and front hydraulic parts? Hope so. You might wanna convert it back someday and buying that stuff piece by piece can get pricey.

Thanks Josh! I traded them for the complete 982 steering set up. I'm enjoying the 1872 as it is.

I actually thought my 982 steered pretty good as well. However, With the engine out, I decided to try my hand upgrading to a thrust bearing. It's a different steering setup so some machining and a different bearing were required. I posted a thread on it if you ever want to look into it.

So, what's this one going to be used for, mowing, trailer towing, intimidating your neighbors green machines?

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
